I booked this house to celebrate a family birthday and we had ten people ranging in age from 1 year to 70 years
It fitted our criteria very well with plenty of room for everyone. Nice walk into Bourton with plenty to occupy the children
We had an issue with the front door on arrival as it didn't close properly but it was dealt with within 30 minutes, thank you Eileen and her husband
After that, no problems at all, lovely welcome pack and very comfortable

Lulham is a perfect house for a family celebration. Well equipped, comfortable ( the only reason I gave 4 for Comfort was that the beds were a little hard!). Table football was a roaring success! Plenty of parking and a 10 - 15 minute walk into Bourton on the Water. Ideal spot.
All in all a fabulous weekend.

The house was lovely but we were disappointed by being surrounded by 4 CCTV cameras and the presence of a noise
monitoring system. We were surprised by the fact no ball games or smoking allowed outside and the absence of sun umbrellas
and a BBQ. We had 3 young children with us but weather not great so not missed but umbrellas would be needed in the
height of summer.
TV in lounge had Sky Q but not Sky Sports.Batteries in controller were dead.Would be helpful if advised terrestrial TV only
obtainable via Apps. Lounge would benefit from more side tables.
As regards Kitchen, there is a combination microwave oven.However takes some time to work out how this and main oven work.
Cannot view dishwasher cleaning progress. No black container outside for paper disposal, only a lid.
Finally when booking the house, pricing structure was surprising.It was cheaper for us to stay an extra night!! Future guests
should look at various options on arriving/leaving to determine the best pricing.

Thank you, John, for your review of Lulham. We are delighted to hear that you found the property to be lovely. We do pre-warn all guests that there is with an external noise monitoring system and 4 external cameras in the property listing and we also confirm that the cameras are only used for security purposes. Ball games or smoking is not permitted in the garden in order to protect the property, garden and the neighbours. We do advise that there are 4 smart TV’s with apps (guests to use their own login details) at the property for guests to use. The owner has checked all of the TVs and could get terrestrial TV on all of the TVs in the house, so we are at a loss to understand why you could not get this during your stay. There is a TV aerial, booster and the owner pays for a TV licence. We are sorry to hear that the batteries in one of the remotes had died. The house comes with the benefit of Sky TV and the listing advises that this is the basic package. We also advise that there is no BBQ. The dishwasher is an integral appliance so it cannot be seen and blends in with the kitchen cabinets. Full operating instructions for all of the household appliances are provided within the information file at the house. Our pricing is set to booking slots rather than nightly rates and the website does advise that starting your booking on either a Friday or Monday will achieve the optimum price. We do hope that you will be back to stay again soon!

Lovely house, perfect for the size of our party (7 adults and 3 children), plenty of room for everyone and well stocked with pots and pans, crockery, glasses and cutlery. Also the welcome pack was appreciated.

I had expected a microwave but there isn't one, also nowhere to put shower gel etc in the shower cubicles which means having to put it on the shower floor which isn't ideal for those of us getting on in age and the handrail on the stairs doesn't go all the way up the stairs which is also a safety issue for anyone with mobility problems.

However the house is in a good location, it felt warm and welcoming and I would book it again and recommend to others.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, great location within a short walk of Bourton on the Water.
The accommodation worked really well, kitchen very well equipped, great amount of cutlery and crockery, although a coffee machine which took beans would have been better as we were unable to find the capsules needed.
The fourth double bedroom was a bit disappointing.
We felt very uneasy about the cameras in the garden and the noise monitoring, should be highlighted in the description and not be pointed out less than 2 weeks before our stay.
Overall however, we had a fantastic family weekend.

Lulham provided the perfect space for us to celebrate several milestone family events. The house itself is in a peaceful, quiet location on the outskirts of the village with ample parking for our four cars. From the welcome complimentary goodies, the accommodation was clean, airy and light, spacious, and provided all the amenities that we needed. With four children in the party, the space, and enclosed garden was a godsend, and the large, well-equipped kitchen/dining area became a hub of what was going on each day. The lounge was large but still had a comfortable, cosy feel, and was the perfect setting for TV or board games in the evenings. The table football in the welcoming entrance hallway was also well used. The Bedrooms were large, and all bedding and towels etc clean and fresh. The bathroom and en-suites were very clean and well appointed.
On a busy Bank Holiday weekend it was ideal to be able to leave the cars and walk into the village which even the four year old managed without too much trouble.
On the one occasion we needed to contact the owner/agent they were friendly, helpful, and replied very promptly.
Overall, Lulham was a lovely home-from-home in which to stay, and provided all we needed for a fantastic and memorable weekend in the beautiful Bourton-on-the-Water. I would thoroughly recommend staying in this property.

This was a get together for the whole family, ages ranging from 2 to 70, and the house was really suited to the purpose as well as being spotlessly clean and very well presented. The open plan living accommodation was ideal, as was the huge dining table and the ensuite facilities in three of the bedrooms. Unfortunately the inclement weather meant that we didn't get to use the garden, but that too was well maintained and great for families. It was an easy walk into Bourton and a great position for exploring this area of the Cotswolds. The only very slight blip was the very creaky and rather uncomfortable metal bed in Bedroom 3, but this did not detract from the overall enjoyment of our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Lulham, Bourton on the Water. The house was conveniently situated, spotless, well equipped and very comfortable for a family of 9.
I would have no hesitation in booking it again and recommending it to others.
Stay Cotswold were a lovely company to deal with.

A lovely clean home from home, with plenty of space for 9 adults and 2 children! The bedrooms were all beautifully presented and the kitchen diner made it easy to cook and chat. The children (big and small) enjoyed the table football! Great location for Bourton and the wider Cotswolds!

We had an amazing weekend celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary with our family.
The house gave us everything we needed and the grandchildren loved the football table game. Furnishings were lovely and the welcome goodies of wine, nibbles, milk and juice were a very welcome surprise. The walk into Bourton on the Water was easy. Overall we couldn’t have wished for more from our special weekend. Thank you.

Lulham house was in a great location .
We were a family group from grand parents to children.
The house was lovely and had everything we needed and was well stocked with cleaning products/toiletries. Also a lovely welcome pack on our arrival.
The only downside was the bedrooms above the lounge, the floors were very creaky. The bedroom with the white metal double bed was so uncomfortable, the mattress was very hard and every time you moved creaked.
think it needs tightening and definitely a new mattress.
The rug in the lounge has a permanent crease in, we had to roll it up as we kept tripping on it especially as it had a glass coffee table on.
Otherwise a great house in a great location.

We needed a house to accommodate a three family get together to celebrate my wife's 70th birthday. Lulham proved to be ideal with 4 bathrooms and table top football which was a great hit with the 4 children.

We, 10 adults went to Lulham for a weeks stay over the New Year period. We had a wonderful time in this spacious house which is in a great location just a 10 minute walk into the town centre. It was also easy to reach other Cotswold towns from this location. There were just a few little niggles that we experienced. 1 there was a shortage of serving spoons/ utensils in the kitchen. 2 As my husband and I were elderly ( 75 and 82 ) we found the shower slippery and would have appreciated a non slip mat. 3 There was a beautiful rug in the lounge which rucked up frequently , despite straightening ,which was a trip hazard. There was a great bonus in that there was an electric car charging point for my son’s electric car.
